Chapter 489 Final Warning to King Bredia
??Michael could see Yasmine's cultivation level. Although she would be considered a heaven-defying prodigy just like the rest of her family, she was still far weaker than Michael. Thus, he didn't mind her.??"Lightning Dash" Michael cast the spell. The next moment, Yasmine saw a bolt of lightning streaking past her.
??"Father!"
??When Katherine screamed, they all realized King Bredia had disappeared from where he was standing.
??Baam!
??Michael slammed King Bredia against the throne by his neck.
??"FATHER!"
??"YOUR MAJESTY!"
??The soldiers and King Bredia's family shouted as they rushed forward to save him. Yasmine was the first to fire a crossbow bolt at Michael.
??Whoosh!
??The bolt soared through the air like a bullet, only to be caught by Michael easily. Yasmine was startled by his reflex. Just as she was about to knock another bolt in her crossbow,
??"Ring of Fire" Michael cast another spell as a scorching hot flame surrounded them.
??"ARRRGHHH!" a few soldiers stood closer to the ring of fire leaped back, screaming in agony.
??"NOOOOOOO!" Katherine screamed, seeing Ghost slamming her father against the throne like a rag doll.
??"DON'T HURT HIM!" she tried to run into the fire, but Andrews held her back by her waist. Still, she squirmed and jerked to reach her father.
??Looking at Katherine crying, Yasmine closed her eyes, raising her arms. Immediately everyone heard a howling sound of the wind. Everything in the hall trembled.
??Yasmine wasn't playing. She directly went for the strongest spell in her arsenal. However, she was stopped by Michael,
??"Three inches" She abruptly opened her eyes when she heard him,
??"Make sure the spell could reach me before I lower my sword three inches,"
??"What three inches?" Everyone wondered after hearing his words. But they soon got their answer when Michael stabbed King Bredia in the chest. He thrust the sword slowly so King Bredia would feel every bit of pain.
??"ARGH!" King Bredia growled as blood trickled down from the wound, making his white shirt worn beneath the fur coat red.
??"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
??Katherine's scream echoed through the halls,
??"GHOST STOP!" Emelda couldn't see Ghost torture the poor girl anymore. She stepped forward, shivering in anger,
??"Your men arrested a man when he crossed the border after selling his family heirloom,"
??Completely ignoring Emelda, Michael spoke to Bredia. He amplified his voice with Arch energy, so everyone heard him loud and clear,
??"Do you know what happened to the man?"
??King Bredia kept growling instead of answering Michael,
??Bang!
??Michael punched Bredia so hard that King Bredia coughed up blood and his wisdom tooth.
??"He was beaten to death by your soldiers in prison. Why? Because you ordered your men to raise the taxes and harass River town citizens,"
??Yasmine frowned. She had already stopped casting the spell. But now, she began to see the other side of things.
??"What did I tell you?"
??Bang!
??He punched King Bredia again,
??"What did I fucking tell you?"
??While Michael was threatening Bredia, the soldiers tried using water to put out the fire ring. But unfortunately, although the fire was crimson red, it was dosed with dark flames. Hence, they couldn't put out the fire no matter how much water they poured.
??"I told you to stay the fuck out of my way, didn't I?" Michael stabbed Bredia's legs, nailing him to the throne
??"FATHER!"
??Katherine kept screaming, but Michael gave no damn about her. Considering Ricky had done his job, he left the throne hall through the roof entry before someone could hold him hostage.
??"Did you stay out of my way? No. You told the merchants to stop visiting Bradford,"
??Bang!
??Michael grabbed King Bredia by his collar and punched him,
??"You ordered your soldiers to harass my people,"
??King Bredia received another punch to his jaw,
??"You caused my people their jobs, their livelihood, and their safety,"
??Michael headbutted Bredia as the king's nose broke, producing a sicking crunching sound,
??"Does that sound like staying the fuck out of my way?"
??The mages already rushed into the throne hall,
??"Cast a spell if you want your majesty's head off of his shoulder,"
??After hearing his cold words, the mages didn't dare to cast a spell. So all they could do was stand there and watch Ghost torture their king.
??"STOP!"
??"PLEASE STOP!"
??Andrews and Katherine shouted at him only to be ignored by Michael again,'
??After hearing what he said, Yasmine learned that King Bredia was not wholly blameless. Although she hated seeing her cousin and newly made friend crying, she saw no way of saving King Bredia. She had a feeling that if he wanted to kill Bredia, he would have done it by now. But instead, he was setting an example. He proved to everyone that he could kill even the king if they messed with him. Moreover, he was removing hundreds of potential enemies by torturing King Bredia on his own throne.
??What he was doing was a show of ultimate dominance.
??"Does…that..sound…like..staying…the…fuck…out…of…my…way?" He banged Bredia's head on the throne every time he uttered a word,
??[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 2000 badass points]
??[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 500 badass points]
??[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully being a badass. The reward is 1500 badass points]
??….
??The badass points rapidly increased with the system ringing in his head.
??Michael ignored the notification sounds and focused on venting his anger on Bredia, who caused him millions of gold coins. All for what? Silly revenge.
??"I AM PREGNANT!" Katherine shouted as loud as she could. The moment Michael heard her, he stopped banging King Bredia's head against the throne.
??"Kathy," Andrew and everyone turned their gazes towards Katherine, who dropped to her knees.
??"If you let him live, I swear on my child we won't bother you ever again," Katherine held her tummy and begged Michael. Tears gushed out of her eyes as she spoke,
??"Now you made me look like a monster," Michael snarled at the king,
??"That child just saved you from a whole lot of agony, old man" Michael pulled out the sword from Bredia's chest,
??As soon as he did that, hot blood came pumping out of the wound,
??"You know, if I wanted to end you, I won't raise an army, wage a war, sit in a tent, and hope my side wins. I wouldn't do that. Nothing can stop me no matter where you are or how protected you are. If I want you dead, you'll be dead, as simple as that"
??Those who heard his words agreed with him. He just appeared out of nowhere, killed the royal guards without raising any alarm, and tortured the king on his throne. They knew if he wanted, he could have killed Bredia several times and no one could have stopped him.
??Consider this your final warning. I am giving you a week. Everything you did, undo them." Andrews sighed as he hugged Katherine tight.
??"If you try to do anything funny, just know many children die in the womb along with their mother, King Bredia," Michael whispered to Bredia before pulling out the second sword from his leg.
??Gradually the fire died down, but the fear in their hearts wasn't. Every single one of them feared Ghost more than they ever did. No one heard what he said lastly to King Bredia. But Yasmine noticed Bredia's change on his bloody face. She could tell whatever Ghost told him made King Bredia terrified.
??The nobles immediately stepped back and made way for Ghost. They didn't dare to stand in his way.
??"How do you sleep at night" Yasmine coldly said,
??"Like a baby" He just smiled at Yasmine before ascending towards the roof entryway. Then, he disappeared from the throne hall, leaving a trail of golden light.
??********************************
??The next day the entire Elon continent was in chaos. Olivia was walking down the streets of River town to have her breakfast at Hades when she saw the people murmuring among themselves looking terrified.
??Surprisingly there was a long line of paper boys in the streets. In other kingdoms, orphans and poor children worked for newspaper prints for slave wages. However, they were paid good coins in Bradford to fill their belly and their families. Claire was kind enough to admit all the orphans and the poor into the sect and offer them free cultivation.
??Because of her act of kindness, Bradford became the first kingdom to have zero street urchins. Since Michael himself was an orphan, he donated a portion of his income to the well-being of the orphans. But, only Claire knew about his donation.
??"New race has been discovered!"
??"Vampires or bloodsuckers? Get a copy of the Royal news for one gold coin"
??"Guardian Captain Peyton apprehended the first vampire"
??"Scandalous Guardian guild. What else are they trying to hide from the people?"
??"The Holy Church condemns the Guardian Guild!"
??"King Ghost versus King Bredia. Princess Katherine is pregnant!"
??The young boys and girls were shouting at the people walking on the streets.
??"Give me a copy" Olivia approached a brown-haired girl who was standing on a stack of crates and holding out a newspaper,
??"Lady Olivia" the young girl greeted Olivia with a wide grin. Olvia was surprised to see the girl addressing her by her name. Olivia took out a gold coin and reached it out to the girl,
??"It's free for you Lady Olivia. Enjoy the news" the girl handed over the newspaper to Olvia but shook her head, refusing to take the coin.
??"Then take this as a tip,"
??The young girl didn't refuse as she took the coin from her hand with an ear-to-ear grin. Olivia wasn't a stranger to the freebies and special treatment she enjoyed in Bradford. Wherever she went, someone always tried to curry favor with her so they could get close to Ghost. Her status as Ghost's disciple overshadowed her position as the teacher at Aragoth.
??"You're so kind my lady" the girl bowed,
??"Yeah yeah," Olvia chuckled and walked towards Hades so she could read the newspaper in peace while having a delicious breakfast. Considering she had to leave for Ozer tonight for the Alchemist competition, she wanted to enjoy Raylene's delicious cooking one last time before leaving with her teacher; Ghost.
